UNSPSC 50416102: Organic bloomsdale spinach

The variety of organic spinach known as organic bloomsdale spinach

UNSPSC 50416102 Organic bloomsdale spinach is a Commodity code covering fresh organic spinach and related leafy greens supplied to state and local institutions. State and local governments procure under this code primarily through school food-service programs, healthcare facility meal plans, and county parks and recreation concessions. The recent opportunities show that issuing bodies soliciting produce and food items include school districts, county boards of education, county parks departments, healthcare coalitions, and state procurement offices. These jurisdictions seek produce vendors capable of meeting USDA nutrition standards, food safety compliance, delivery schedules, and in some cases local or domestic sourcing preferences. School districts dominate this segment—Early County Board of Education's solicitation for the 2026–2027 fiscal year emphasizes whole-grain and low-sodium formulations, domestic sourcing, and products without added sugars or artificial additives, reflecting USDA National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program requirements. Healthcare and parks concessions round out the customer base, each with distinct operational needs around freshness guarantees, delivery windows, and volume predictability.

Recent activity is spread across Georgia (state-level food procurement and Early County Schools), Florida (Collier County), and the Marion Health Care Coalition region. Representative recent opportunities include Early County Board of Education's line-by-line food bid (IFB, due June 8, 2026) for approximately 300+ food items including vegetables and fruits across three schools with Monday–Friday delivery between 6:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m.; Collier County Board of County Commissioners' Invitation to Negotiate (ITN, due March 6, 2025) for food services at North Collier Regional Park and concession facilities emphasizing menu variety and food safety compliance; and Marion Health Care Coalition's produce proposals (due August 21, 2026) for fresh fruits and vegetables with quality standards and delivery timelines. The State of Georgia also issued a food, supplies, and kitchen products bid (due June 22, 2026) with full scope details in the attached solicitation document. School district contracts typically run July–June with firm pricing for 15 days from award and escalation adjustments permitted semi-annually based on USDA or CPI data; vendors must carry general liability insurance, comply with Buy American provisions, and maintain HACCP plans.
